…House of Assembly forms to be sold in the states, others in Abuja
The rescheduled sales of expression of interest and nomination forms of the governing All Progressives Congress (APC) for the 2023 general elections will now begin nationwide on Tuesday.
The exercise which was scheduled to have begun yesterday (Saturday) was postponed due to some logistics and administrative challenges. The new date was arrived at on Friday night in Abuja by the party.
The nomination forms for aspirants to the State House of Assembly will be sold in the various states as the party has decided to send this category of forms to each of 36 State headquarters of the party.
The sales of forms for other positions from the House of Representatives, Senate, Governorship and Presidency will be carried out at the APC National Secretariat in Abuja by the party.
The sales of expression of interest and nomination forms will now start nationwide on Tuesday. The NWC is conscious of the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) June 3rd deadline given to all political parties, hence, it was resolved that forms for State Houses of Assembly be sold at the state level.
The National Secretariat will dispatch the State House of Assembly nomination forms to the states over the weekend to enable them to start on Tuesday.
For those aspiring for other positions from House of Representatives, Senate, Governorship and Presidential, their forms will be sold by the National Secretariat at a designated place to be announced by Monday. The ongoing renovation at the Mohammadu Buhari House necessitated the change in venue of sales.
The Senator Abdullahi Adamu-led National Working Committee (NWC) is committed to concluding all arrangements for the conduct of primaries as scheduled by INEC and putting the governing APC on good steads ahead of the 2023 general elections.
